ASUS today announced ASUS Transformer AiO, an All-in-One PC with a detachable display that can also be used as a standalone tablet around the home.
ASUS
Transformer AiO consists of a desktop PC Station running Windows 8
OS and powered by a 3rd generation Intel Core desktop processor,
and a detachable 18.4-inch display with its own NVIDIA Tegra 3
quad-core processor for use as a self-contained tablet with Android
4.1.
Designed for desktop use, its PC Station is powered by a 3rd
generation Intel Core desktop processor with NVIDIA GeForce GT 730M
graphics and features USB 3.0. Its 18.4-inch LED-backlit display
has a 1080p Full HD resolution with 10-point multi-touch and
features IPS technology.
ASUS Transformer AiO also features dual-band Wi-Fi for
high-performance wireless networking with compatible routers. 5GHz
Wi-Fi reduces interference from nearby 2.4GHz networks in crowded
Wi-Fi areas. ASUS SonicMaster audio technology also ensures high
sound quality.
When detached from the PC Station, ASUS Transformer AiO?s display
can be used as two different types of king-size tablet. First,
wireless Remote Desktop technology with dual-band Wi-Fi provides
complete multi-touch control over Windows 8 on the PC Station for
easy access to productivity and entertainment software around the
home.
Alternatively, the 18.4-inch display can also be used as a
standalone tablet with Android 4.1, thanks to its built-in NVIDIA
Tegra 3 quad-core processor. ASUS Transformer AiO switches
seamlessly between operating systems at the press of a button and
has up to five hours? battery life. The display also features a
carrying handle and a folding stand for comfortable tabletop use
away from the PC Station.
The Transformer AiO (P1801) is expected to be available in North
America early second quarter at $1,299 for the basic model.
